The app-schema plugin uses the natural order of the source data store; I am not even sure if it sorts by primary key under all circumstances (such as denormalised sources when joining is not used (see the mapping file page in the manual)). If you need a particular ordering, a view seems to me like a good solution. Kind regards, Ben.
